[July 29, 2007] Broadvox and ABP Technology Forge SIP Telephony Marketing Partnership Tweet (Wireless News Via Thomson Dialog NewsEdge) Broadvox and ABP Technology have entered into a marketing and sales partnership to offer Broadvox SIP Trunking and VoIP services in conjunction with ABP's national reseller network. Broadvox said that its GO! SIP Trunking products meet the growing telecommunications needs of the SMB marketplace by providing immediate cost savings with free local calling, and significantly reduced toll and international calls while also providing a platform for next-generation SIP services including IP PBX equipment, Unified Messaging, and Presence-based applications. The ABP Technology national reseller network will use its knowledge and experience to combine the Broadvox GO! SIP Trunking products with the equipment, network analysis and service best suited for their customer's environment. ABP Technology's reseller network can choose from a wide range of IP telephony and networking products to meet the business need. "Broadvox's selection of ABP Technology as a key strategic partner in the distribution of our Broadvox GO! SIP Trunking product line, underscores an overall paradigm shift in the channel," explained Mark Bresler, Broadvox's VP of Channel Sales. "Traditionally, telecom agents brought nothing more than a commodity to the table. A new breed of channel partner; the "Value Added Reseller," provides a wealth of knowledge around IP Telephony and Networking to the end-user, and also provides value to the ITSP through their ability to assist in the actual deployment of the solution. ABP Preferred Professional Partners exemplify the type of Value Added Resellers that we want to partner with in the launch of our new product offering." Broadvox and ABP have announced the immediate availability of their IP solutions and services nationwide. The offering includes E911, DIDs, disaster recovery and local number portability allowing businesses to keep their current phone numbers. Delivering unlimited local, toll free, nationwide and international calling, Broadvox's network covers 90 percent of the US and Canada markets, the companies noted. Robert Messer, President of ABP Technology says "We are excited to add Broadvox to ABP's Preferred Service Provider Partner Program and be able to offer our Reseller Partner Network convenient access to a national SIP service provider with a mature back office and a robust network. Broadvox GO! promises to become one of the most robust business VoIP services in the nation."
